A Date

My Husband decides to treat me to an outing looking at plants.  He took me to a few local Native nurseries then off to The Florida Botanical Gardens.

The Gardens

Passion Flower (Passiflora Incarnata)


It looks like a snake head.

Texas Olive Tree (Cordia Boissieri)


Blanket Flower (Gaillardia)

I Don't know

Plumeria (not sure what species)
I would love to visit again.

    Those are my favorite kind of dates! (Not sure if Husband enjoys them as much...he's more of a movie kind of guy.)

    Your "I don't know" is a Blackberry lily (Belamcanda chinensis).

    Oh thank you. My husband always says any time spent with me is worth it...I am sure your husband thinks the same.

    Which botanical garden did your husband take you to? I was going to say what your I don't know is, but see that Floridagirl already beat me to it. That's a great little plant and once the seed head dries, you'll have more seeds to plant in your gardens.

    Thanks for posting the list of Florida botanical gardens.
